The host met me within hours of applying for the stay. Without knowing of my background as a former expat thats been living for several years in Bangkok he gave me a lot of sound advice that would be very helpful to anyone travelling here. Nice sights to see, scams to avoid etc.

The apartment was in a clean condition and exactly as in the pictures. Internet worked very well.

Lasalle in itself is a very nice area that will give you a true "local" feeling, whilst having access to what's being considered the "city centre" by just getting on the skytrain for a few stops. The skytrain (BTS) is literally 3 minutes away of the apartment building.
